Here's a sweet little vintage trinket box that I picked up for a steal recently. It depicts the Grand Ole Opry and is just big enough to store a few little treasures inside. It's definitely older, though I have done a couple of online searches and haven't managed to find another one yet that would provide more clues about it's age.
When I initially turned this baby over and saw it's $2 price tag at one of my favorite little thrift stores, I snagged it quickly. Living in Nashville anyway, I am not only a fan of the Grand Ole Opry itself, but also a fan of vintage "Nashville" items. But the bottom of this trinket box also provides a little more information about it. It is in fact bone china and was made in England. SCORE!!
It's also lined in what I assume is gold plating on the inside, but who knows? Maybe this is the real deal. Wouldn't that be a hoot?!?! If you are familiar with this particular little treasure box, I would love to find out more about it. Although I will go ahead and say now that it's not for sale. :)
It is just big enough to hold a few pieces of my go-to jewelry that I wear frequently. And it tucks in perfectly in my dressing area. This little $2 box just makes my heart smile every time I look at it. Sometimes all it takes is the smallest thing to make this girl happy, and this one just did it for me!
